Six Weeks

Baby Jane has been such a joy in our home. We don't always call her baby Jane, but Lizzy always does. Lizzy and Nellie just love her to pieces and they want to hold her all the time. I really can't believe how fast time flies. She is already six weeks old, crazy. I am really getting the hang of three now. It helps that I am feeling better and have my energy back, well as much as I am going to get until I get to sleep through the night again. My mom always would tell me that you just have to make it to six weeks and things start to get easier. That is true. One day last week I just realized that I was feeling not so out of control anymore and feeling like this was something I could handle.

Jane is getting so big and so fun, she is such a smiler, and she is starting to talk and make cute baby noises. It is amazing how much your love grows when you have another baby. you think that you can't possibly imagine loving another baby as much as you love your kids but that sweet baby comes and your love just grows beyond measure. I just love this sweet little girl, I couldn't imagine having a boy now instead of her.

She always sleeps like this, with her hand up by her face like she is posing. I just love it.

Kevy calls her big eyes, because she always has such bright big eyes.

She was helping Daddy play hungry hippos.

Can you tell how much Lizzy loves her. One day I caught Lizzy talking to Jane saying "I'm here, Mommy is here." Like she was Jane's mom. She is so silly.The girlies in their zipper jammies. Lizzy and Nellie have rediscovered these jammies and want to wear them all the time. Nellie looks really long in this picture.

Sisters..and Best Friends

Lizzy and Nellie are inseparable. They really do everything together. They play so well together, it makes me so happy. Of course they have their moments, Like when Lizzy tries to boss Nellie around and Nellie gets sick of it and beats the crap out of Lizzy. But for the most part they love each other so much and each one would be lost without the other. Here they were getting their feet massaged in the foot spa. They think this is the coolest thing ever. They ask if they can do it every night.

Kevy got them hooked on playing Xbox. Or at least they think they are playing. Nellie's guy just runs around in a circle, but hey whatever keeps them happy at this point.


There hasn't been much snow this year (hurray!!) so the girls haven't been able to wear their snow stuff, so they decided to dress up and pretend to play in the snow.

Lizzy usually decides what they do and Nellie usually goes along with it. They play pretend and Lizzy is the Mom and Nellie is the Dad, it is so funny. They are always carting their blankets and pillows around the house and making beds, along with their hundreds of stuffed animals (okay it just seems like hundreds) They color together and play dolls together and polly pockets and oh just everything. One of their new things is taking lots and lots of whatever they can find and sectioning off areas in the house that are their cages. Don't ask me I have no idea. I just know that I love that they play so well together but I just really hate the mess because they manage to destroy my house multiple times each day.

I am just so happy that we had three little girls in a row. I just hope that they include Jane in this when she gets older. I am sure they will. I am so grateful for my sisters and the memories I have with them growing up, and the relationship I have with them now and hope that my little girls will have that as well.
